Methods: The total RNAs were isolated from the nasal mucosa of 20 allergic rhinitis patients and purifi ed to messenger RNAs, and then reversely transcribed to cDNAs and incorporated with samples of fl uorescence-labeled with Cy5-dUPT (rhinitis patient samples) or Cy3- dUTP (control samples of nonallergic nasal mucosa). Thirty-nine cDNAs of chemokines and their receptors were latticed into expression profi le chips, which were hybridized with probes and then scanned with the computer to study gene expression according to the different fl uorescence intensities. Results: The cDNAs of the following chemokines were upregulated: CCL1, CCL2, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL11, CCL13, CCL14, CCL17, CCL18, CCL19, CCL24, and CX3CL1 in most of the allergic rhinitis sample chips. CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR8 and CX3CR1 were the highly expressed receptor genes. Low expression of CXCL4 was found in these tissues. Conclusion: The T helper cell (TH) immune system is not well regulated in allergic rhinitis.

  • Neutrophil Chemoattractant Receptors in Health and Disease: Double-Edged Swords
    Cellular & Molecular Immunology www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW ARTICLE Neutrophil chemoattractant receptors in health and disease: double-edged swords Mieke Metzemaekers1, Mieke Gouwy1 and Paul Proost 1 Neutrophils are frontline cells of the innate immune system. These effector leukocytes are equipped with intriguing antimicrobial machinery and consequently display high cytotoxic potential. Accurate neutrophil recruitment is essential to combat microbes and to restore homeostasis, for inflammation modulation and resolution, wound healing and tissue repair. After fulfilling the appropriate effector functions, however, dampening neutrophil activation and infiltration is crucial to prevent damage to the host. In humans, chemoattractant molecules can be categorized into four biochemical families, i.e., chemotactic lipids, formyl peptides, complement anaphylatoxins and chemokines. They are critically involved in the tight regulation of neutrophil bone marrow storage and egress and in spatial and temporal neutrophil trafficking between organs. Chemoattractants function by activating dedicated heptahelical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In addition, emerging evidence suggests an important role for atypical chemoattractant receptors (ACKRs) that do not couple to G proteins in fine-tuning neutrophil migratory and functional responses. The expression levels of chemoattractant receptors are dependent on the level of neutrophil maturation and state of activation, with a pivotal modulatory role for the (inflammatory) environment. Here, we provide an overview

The tumor microenvironment usually prevents effective lymphocyte activation and infiltration, and suppresses infiltrating effector cells, leading to a failure of the host toreject the tumor. CC chemokines play a significant role in inflammation and infection. Methods: In our study, we analyzed the expression and survival data of CC chemokines in patients with BC using several bioinformatics analyses tools. Results: The mRNA expression of CCL2/3/4/5/7/8/11/17/19/20/22 was remark- ably increased while CCL14/21/23/28 was significantly down-regulated in BC tis- sues compared with normal tissues. Methylation could down-regulate expression of CCL2/5/15/17/19/20/22/23/24/25/26/27 in BC. Low expression of CCL3/4/23 was found to be associated with drug resistance in BC.

Lira, and Rob Leurs Copyright Ó 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 978-3-527-32118-6 j3 1 Structural Aspects of Chemokines and their Interactions with Receptors and Glycosaminoglycans Amanda E. I. Proudfoot, India Severin, Damon Hamel, and Tracy M. Handel 1.1 Introduction Chemokines are a large subfamily of cytokines (50 in humans) that can be distinguished from other cytokines due to several features. They share a common biological activity, which is the control of the directional migration of leukocytes, hence their name, chemoattractant cytokines. They are all small proteins (approx. 8 kDa) that are highly basic, with two exceptions (MIP-1a, MIP-1b). Also, they have a highly conserved monomeric fold, constrained by 1–3 disulfides which are formed from a conserved pattern of cysteine residues (the majority of chemokines have four cysteines). The pattern of cysteine residues is used as the basis of their division into subclasses and for their nomenclature. The first class, referred to as CXC or a-chemokines, have a single residue between the first N-terminal Cys residues, whereas in the CC class, or b-chemokines, these two Cys residues are adjacent. While most chemokines have two disulfides, the CC subclass also has three members that contain three. Subsequent to the CC and CXC families, two fi additional subclasses were identi ed, the CX3C subclass [1, 2], which has three amino acids separating the N-terminal Cys pair, and the C subclass, which has a single disulfide.
